The only dif. between Cas and Iveechan is that ivee actually took the abuse instead of lashing back...if ivee went down Cas' she'd be banned to, and lots more people would be sad...

yeah, Cas was a good person, she just made a few bad mistakes in front of some really touchy admins

BOO ya!

Cherrim February 2nd, 2004 5:15 PM

Yeah, I remember Cas. She's one of my best friends online AND offline, so I'd be hard-pressed not to remember her. o_o

I don't think Cas was right in what she did with the KAMIKAZE thing, or whatever happened with that, and I see where the ban came from as I would hope that if I suddenly turned on the forums and did what she did, that I would be banned from PC. However... you can't complain that she was rude to people in her request topic. They're REQUESTS. She doesn't have to take them. But this has already been covered.

Basically, people, if you never met Cas or if you weren't here when she was, you honestly can't judge her WHATSOEVER. Everyone is different, and she just has a shorter fuse than others. That doesn't mean she's evil or something (and I'm still irked that someone could compare her to someone like Hitler in one topic... >\). If you were actually around when she was... she was just as popular as Kairi was and she was one of the best things that ever happened to this board... even if her time here ended on a bitter note. Why? She got the boards really going, believe it or not. Things were much more active when she was around and it was very fun. I'm not saying it isn't now, but I think that any other people who were around when she was can agree that the board was just... different. In a positive way, maybe. I think so, anyway. *shrug*

Iveechan February 2nd, 2004 5:17 PM

Um... what? Are you saying I'm close to being banned? And while I'm addressing you, what's with the boo ya?

Cherrim February 2nd, 2004 5:26 PM

Eh? No, not at all. ^_^; It's just that if you were to violently attack people if they insulted you or something the way Cas did/would have done (@[email protected]; so tired..), then you would probably be banned... but you handle yourself well, so don't worry about it.

And his boo ya thing is just... it just is. o_o; As I stated somewhere else once, telling Dakota to stop saying BOO ya! is like telling Pikachu to stop saying, "Pikachu". XP (Er... without the chance of it learning english like Meowth did. <_< You don't have to say it this time, Kairi.)

Kairi February 2nd, 2004 5:52 PM

No, I wouldn’t compare you to Cas, but then again, I don’t know her so I can’t anyways. You’re not near banning as far as I am aware.

Lightning, do you still see her offline? Does she live in Canada?

orange*berry February 2nd, 2004 6:12 PM

I thought Cas lived in England, but I might be mistaken. X.o()
What I meant about the request thing was... she was really rude about it sometimes, and if anyone asked once how their request was going, she'd automatically kick their name to the bottom of her request list. () She'd also make rude comments in the contest forums like, 'I'm not entering after all. Because Orange is my only competition.' Which isn't the nicest thing to say to... well... anyone who isn't me. n.n()

MoonLight February 2nd, 2004 6:21 PM

Yeah I remember that Orange she said that you and I were the only competition she had Which wasn't very nice. Anyways I still do talk to her sometimes, and she is not a bad person if ya get to know her. Bad things happened that's all I can say

Iveechan February 2nd, 2004 8:23 PM

Just sounds like someone who tells the truth and is strict to me.

Shinin February 3rd, 2004 4:23 AM

One of the reasons she was pissed off at the board(and the world) is that her dad accidentally cut his arm off with a chainsaw and she had some other family proplems.
Hey what's the Pikasurf URL?

H.A.W.K. February 3rd, 2004 4:44 AM

MegaLightBlaze February 3rd, 2004 6:54 AM

I remember Cas. Infact, I'm goin to start a Time Capsule of Memberable Members. Can I get someone to Sticky it? I also would like help thinking of members.

Kairi February 3rd, 2004 8:06 AM

Frostweaver has done something similar with the reference thread, but neither is sticked. ^_^; If a guide like that got really good, it’d probably be put into the technical institute, I wager.

Iveechan, if you have a good afternoon to spare, you could try digging through the reference to around December? I believe, when it happened to see.

Frostweaver February 3rd, 2004 3:23 PM

*Cas event happened in early January...*

*if Megalightblaze wants to do it, s/he certainly can... as Frosty is just working his butt off on most weekdays that he can only flip through a bit of the reference everytime on weekends, which is way too slow to read through half a year of PC...*

Shinin February 3rd, 2004 3:51 PM

LL came back as Azurill17 or something like that. He PMed me and told me that and not to tell anyone. We used to be online friends.

Haruka February 3rd, 2004 4:46 PM

Well, I know everyone's good and bad sides though.. >_<

Well, anyway... Whos going to create a guide on it then?

After she was banned, me and her talked on AIM about it. She was mad and so was I, she didn't need to be banned. She didn't even get a warning. IT seems that one of the admins had it in for her back then. Lousy people...We talked a lot back then, I haven't seen much of her lately...sad

Haruka, don't comment on members you don't know anything about...seriously..

so yeah, I remember everything about Cas...and what happened

boo hoo, memories...

Agreed. She's a good person and I've talked her before, (but I was really really really really incredibly shy when I did :P) asking her to come back to PC lol.

Obviously I failed in doing that. XD

She doesn't have a very pleasent history on forums. It's unpleasent enough for her to tell me that on a forum, "you lose more friends than you gain" - and how so many of her friends just turned on her at PC. And bleh, she doesn't care about PC anymore. She still likes Pokemon, though, and now she has her own forum linked at pikasurf.com - I'm "Japan" there :P, but I stopped going there because I just don't have time anymore...

Althoguh, I had not come to PC before Cas was banned, she inspired me to try to be a "Nice Guy!" (what I put as my title) out of nothing, I don't know how. ^_^;; Also, all my artwork (Picture of Melody and May/Haruka) at old PC were all inspired because I met her. lol and I spend sooo much time on them. I remember Diana (Now known as Haruka) kept guessing I was thinking about Cas all through Math class during summer school in July too :laugh:

Frostweaver February 3rd, 2004 8:36 PM

*like what he said before... Frosty still thinks that half of the total amount of flamers who flamed Cas back then didn't really know what's going on... then one half of the remaining just fails to see through Cas's view (aka not very considerate)... so out of all those pages of flaming Cas, perhaps only 1 page worth amount of post are made by people who actually know what's going on and can actually support themselves in reasoning why hate Cas so much... All the others just follow the crowd or is just judging on their behalf (such as Cas never replying to their art request and automatically imply that she's a rude person...)*

Perhaps their leaders are... but who cried for the german soldiers who are forced to fight in the war regardless of their opinion if their leader is right or wrong...? We all cried for the allies soldiers... who cried for them?*

I never bothered crying for the allied soldiers but I did cry for the German soldiers... *Sniff* That photo of an German infantry going to the front line in 1944, with a machine, gridding his teeth, trying to hold on, it was so sad. :( Even with the Nazist beliefs ingrained in the German soldiers, they held their glorious loyalty, history, militaristic & scientific training, obeidience, even untill the last days :'( (slow German defeat from 1941-1945 were not because of Hitler but because the German people's will and courage), pulling everything they could to fight, and meanwhile getting constantly stabbed in the back by Hitler's divorce from reality, military mess ups, and not litsening to his ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT military generals. Hitler wouldn't even see the miracle potential of Jet Fighter which the Germans alone invented at the time and forbid any German Pilots to fly it.

The days when when German bombers flew the London skies... The damage they caused to the city (and the descision to bomb the British civilians was also the serious turning point of the war), was paid back 25 folds :'( :'( by the American bombers, 1943-1945, flying the German skies. Germany was literally bombed back to the stone ages by the end of the war.

The Germans quickly, bloodily, fiercely advanced but were answered with the same brutality, if not worse, by the Allies. :'(

But the stories, from what's left of the German populace who revealed how it should be called, apporiately, Germany lost the war. More so than American resources won the war... But their side (Or you could say "the loser's side") of the story didn't get published until at least 20-30 years after the war. =/

Frostweaver February 3rd, 2004 8:52 PM

*and the above: direct and exact parallel of Cas event... can't say it any better*

@[email protected] She lives in the UK.. so I don't see her offline. ;p My friend Ashley met her on a trip to Europe last year, though. And I have Cas' address and I do plan to meet her one day. :o

In reply to 22sa's post that I'm too tired to quote... o_o She loses friends on forums because of her personality, sadly. People just aren't used to someone who speaks her mind that way. I find it kind of pathetic, because there are plenty of people who speak their mind in the world who get all sorts of positive attention, but when you find someone like that in real life... they just come off as rude. They may well be rude, but not always. =\ If you take each situation in its context, you'll find Cas had some good reasons to do some of the things she did.

Frostweaver February 4th, 2004 3:58 PM

*wow... to have a friend meeting an online friend in RL... what's the chance of that happening anyway? How blessed ^_^*

*yes certainly... it's always the lack of consideration and a change in POV to try to see through her window that is the heart of the entire Cas problem. In an argument, people always see from their side of the problem as it involves themselves. So little people will try to understand the other side as well. People who doesn't try to understand the WHOEL situation jumps to conclusion too quickly, and resulted in the tragic Cas event. So so little people spoke out for her back in OC, perhaps just one or two and those few brave souls got severely flamed for even mentioning the slightest hint of defending Cas*

22sa February 4th, 2004 4:37 PM

Heh, it's amazing how much you can learn when you hear the other side :P

Personally, if I’m not there to experience it, I try not to listen to either side. Try being keyword.
